I discussed the cyborgization in 'Ghost in the Shell' with someone who has an engineering backgorund, programmer, etc, and keeps up with technology changes by spending lots of money on technical magazines.
He and I decided there would be no way to transfer the thoughts, memories, emotions, etc. of the person who was being placed into the cyborg shell.
The cyborg shell benig a titanium replacement for the human body. The movie isn't very cleaqr, but apparantly there are various mechanisms that mimic the human body, musculature, etc.
The Anime and movie mentions a power source, it isn't food. So, I guess its batteries, nuclear, or 'a device not detailed in the story'.
I did find a translated copy of the original manga. And the author has a ection at the end, he comments in the areas between the Manga panels. No mention, that I remember, of what the power source mgiht be.
I thought of Robert A. Henlein's 'Shipstone' as mentioned in his book 'Friday'. But that is in a 'different universe'.
